Bumper-Sticker Factory
Directions:
Some travelers like to collect souvenir bumper stickers on their journeys. But why not make your own? All the better to remember where you've been on your vacation.
Cut bumper-sticker-sized strips of plain white paper and provide some art supplies. Now your kids are ready to open their own bumper-sticker manufacturing plant.
Each traveler can make his or her own bumper sticker, or teams can work together (for example, one person might draw the pictures while another writes the text). The bumper stickers can include the name of a city, town, or state you're passing through; a logo or design (perhaps an indigenous tree or a house built in the local architectural style); or a slogan (one that says something about the economy, for example).
Who knows? If you pass through any places with exotic names like Essex (Vermont) or Lebanon (New Hampshire), you might even be able to convince your friends back home that you traveled out of the country!
